SNIPPET #3
"Say Ah," said Vestal the Eagle Union's repair ship/medical officer. Ooyodo complied and opened her mouth for a medical examination. Ooyodo found herself in the infirmary after both Belfast and Sheffield dragged their supposed elder sister after they saw her consume about 20 or so plates of large breakfast orders. It's concerning considering that as far as they knew no normal KAN-SEN could consume that much amount of food. Ooyodo being a ship girl of a different nature though considers such meals as typical.
"Now do you feel any pain? Sick to your stomach?" Vestal kept asking medical questions. Ooyodo though was starting to get exasperated.
"I told you I'm fine. All I need is some aspirin for a headache," she said in a somewhat nervous tone, just like how Edinburgh would answer. Ooyodo considered it fortunate that she's getting acclimated with the memories of the KAN-SEN she's inhabiting.
"I'll be the judge of that," Vestal replied back as she continued her examination.
"Really, Vestal. There's nothing to be concerned about. Bel and Sheffy are just exaggerated a bit about what happenend," Ooyodo said in Edinburgh's mannerisms all the while she's trying to come up with a better explanation.
"Edinburgh, from what your sisters said, you ate 20 large breakfast portions and was on the way in eating another plate before they dragged you here. Care to explain that?" Vestal retorted back. Like anyone would believe that eating that much food in one sitting is because she's KAN-SEN. It would have passed back in Ooyodo's old world but not here.
"…I was hungry?" Ooyodo really has no excuse.
"Right. Off the bed and into the machine," Vestal said as Ooyodo got off the medical bed and was led into a bed with half-cylindrical machine. Ooyodo saw and knew it was an MRI machine, something that was invented a few decades later. With Siren technology being reversed-engineered it must be expected that such advances is a quirk of this world.
"Right. Let me start this now," Vestal said as Ooyodo laid on the scanner table and let the machine run its course. After the machine scan ended Ooyodo got up and waited in chair for the results.
"Ok, Here are the results and wow," Vestal said as she proceeded to explain her findings. Ooyodo waited for her to finish explaining.
"Well?" Ooyodo asked, already knowing what the answer is.
"All the examinations that I made on you turned out negative. In fact you're healthy as can be. Which is baffling on its own," Vestal explained her findings, her face showing confusion and mounting frustration. Ooyodo guessed that she's wanting to start tearing her hair out.
"Ok?" Ooyodo only had a raised eyebrow
"You're so healthy that I could not find anything wrong with you. At all," Vestal flatly stated.
"So can I go now?" Ooyodo asked, ready to leave. She does not want to deal with explaining how her nature as a ship girl is different from a KAN-SEN.
"Sure. Just to be safe though, take a rest. I want you back here tomorrow so I could get a more detailed examination on you. Also here's the aspirin that you requested. Do be careful," Vestal said giving her the aspirin as she now becomes fully absorbed in her findings.
"Thank you, Vestal! You're the best!" Ooyodo said in a perky voice, leaving out the door of the infirmary. Inwardly she's just eager to leave and not keep acting as Edinburgh in front of her, finding it becoming tiring soon enough.
"That girl worries me. Now how to make sense of these reports," Vestal said after seeing Edinburgh leave.

Leaving the infirmary, Ooyodo vowed to be more careful about her nature in the future. For now she proceeded to public records office to review on the military's side on the history of this world, any military procedures she might have missed, detail information about the Sirens, etc. She has found that although she's integrating Edinburgh's memories she finds it missing the overall picture. As such she needs to read more information as long as she's in this world. Coupled with the fact that she technically possessed the body of a KAN-SEN that is quite close to the people around her, she has to figure out a way to explain herself without possibly getting attacked.
As she made her way to the offices, she heard a high-pitched voice screaming her name.
"EDINBURGH!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Wha— Oomph!" Ooyodo found herself nearly bowled over by someone half her size and crying into her skirt. She looked down and saw a tuft of silver hair. She looked closely and to her astonishment the little girl hugging and crying into her resembled her sister Belfast.
"Little Bel!?" Ooyodo said in a surprised tone. Indeed it is a smaller version of Belfast. She wonders why and how she came into existence but supposes it must be the results of Mental Cubes research.
"Edinburgh!!!!! I heard from Big Bel that you were sick! I rushed over as soon as I heard and—" Little Bel cries even further into Ooyodo's skirt. Ooyodo is a bit bewildered and tries to calm her down. She knelt down to make her eye level with Little Bel and proceeded to pat her on the head.
"There, there. It's alright, see? I'm fine and fit as a fiddle," Ooyodo said, relying on Edinburgh's memories. This seems to work as Little Bel's cries slowly comes to a stop. This seems to calm her down somewhat. She only looks up to her sister, still sniffling.
"Big sis Edinburgh!" Little Bel just hugs her tighter all the while Ooyodo pats her head. She's glad for the memories to as Edinburgh's familiar mannerisms helped deal with the little KAN-SEN.
"Well it's reassuring to know you're alright, Edinburgh. You had us a bit worried when we heard that Belfast and Sheffield took you to the infirmary. Little Bel took off to find you before we could stop her," said a very calm and elegant voice. Ooyodo looked up and saw it was another maid. She had long brunette hair with a headband tied with blue ribbons, on her side was a folded umbrella. Behind her were Belfast and Sheffield.
"Ah, Newcastle," Ooyodo said with Edinburgh's recognition. Yes it is her elder sister Newcastle.
"How are you, Edinburgh?" Newcastle asked with concern. Both Belfast and Sheffield looking the same.
"I feel fine, really. I'll just need rest and come back for some tests," Ooyodo said, sounding convincing.
"Well, that's good then. Please don't worry us like that again. Many in the Royal Maids were quite worried," Newcastle replied back with relief.
"Wait, everyone?" Ooyodo asked, fearing more scrutiny will be upon her, still patting Little Bel on the head while she still clings to her.
"Well, yes. Why wouldn't we?" Sheffield replied back with a raised eyebrow.
"Anyway it's time to go back to our Royal duties since—" Belfast was cutoff as an alarm for General Quarters was heard throughout the base. An announcement was heard throughout the speakers.
"A-Attention! Enemy Siren Raid!" This was said over the air by another woman, stuttering at the start, "Any available KAN-SEN are to deploy to repel this attack! Wahh! The paperwork!" The announcement was cutoff with what was heard to be stacks of paperwork tipping over and the microphone being dropped then turning off. Ooyodo raised her head, a twitch in her eye starting for form.
"Please don't tell me that was…" Ooyodo slowly said, suspicion starting to form on who that was and what was happening thanks to Edinburgh's memories.
"Yes, that was Sirius together with the Commander. That pathetic trash," Sheffield said, whispering that last tidbit. Both Belfast and Newcastle had frowns on their faces, feeling of exasperation palpable.
"Hmmm…" Little Bel said nuzzling into Edinburgh's skirt.
"Right, let us go and repel this attack. We will deal with the Master's paperwork later," said Newcastle with that same calm tone but that undercurrent of disappointment is still there. All three maids soon turned and started to leave. Ooyodo made to follow but was stopped by Belfast.
"No, Edinburgh, you take a rest. We'll take care of this. Besides you need the rest. Please take Little Bel in the shelter," Belfast said as she followed Newcastle and Sheffield to the battle.
"Ok. C'mon Little Bel, let's go to the shelter," Ooyodo said taking Little Bel's hand. The sounds of thundering cannon fire and energy weapons heard quite loudly enough so that the building they were in shook a little bit.
"Ok, big sis Edinburgh," Little Bel replied as they left for safety.

After dropping Little Bel off into the shelter that's protected from the attack, Ooyodo made her way to the Commander's office. Her face set in a frown, a cynical look forming on the way.
Where's the rest of the Command Staff? There is no way he's dealing with all this alone Ooyodo thought to herself, her sensibilities screaming at the irresponsibility of it all. She soon made her way to the office doors when she heard sounds on the other side.
"Ah! Master!? There's a fire!" Crashing sounds could be overheard The sounds of battle seems to start tapering off, not clear indication that the raid is over but is away from the command facilities, which is why noises from beyond the door were quite clear. Ooyodo just develops an eye twitch, her mounting anger soon to follow.
Walking to the door handle, Ooyodo just twists it open, almost breaking the lock before pushing the double doors open with a bang and walked inside, urgency with every step. Inside she saw a scene of chaos and pandemonium. Large stacks of paperwork reaching the ceiling unfinished, command screens showing the progress of the battle, some feeds cutting off before coming back on, and somehow there's a fire that got started in the corner. In the center is a platinum blonde girl running around like a chicken with her head cut off with was as male officer behind the desk just pressing buttons and looked as though he has no idea what he's doing, evidence by the panicked look on his face.
This is the scene Ooyodo walked into and this set something fierce inside her, familiar instincts coming into the fore.
Right time get to work Ooyodo thought to herself before placing her thumb and middle finger and whistled loud to get their attention.
"Both of you calm the hell down! Now!" Ooyodo said full of authority from years of command. To the Commander and Sirius, both were just staring befuddled on how Edinburgh of all KAN-SEN seem to know what she's doing.
"Sirius, stop what you're doing and grab a large cloth to put out the fire. Commander stop what the hell you're doing and grab a coffee. Let me handle this mess," Ooyodo commanded as she starts gathering the strewn paperwork and organizing this mess. Meanwhile the two just stared. Then Ooyodo started back.
"What are you waiting for, an invitation!? Get to your task already!" Ooyodo said with finality, causing the other two to get out of their stupor and follow Edinburgh's orders.
AN: Right, this was a good stopping point. I just stopped where I needed to think on how to create scene where Ooyodo dresses down both the Commander and Sirius and and where Ooyodo fully shows her capabilities as a hypercompetent secretary ship. Please leave any comments to make this snippet better.
Edit #2: Right, so made the snippet look as though the Commander and Sirius are overwhelmed. Hope this is acceptable.
